"The way voters and the general public are inclined towards the NDA. The voters have made up their minds that the NDA government will be formed in Bihar with a two-thirds majority... For this, relying on the Prime Minister's guarantee and faith in Nitish Kumar's development, the people are going to form the NDA government with a heavy majority," Jaiswal told ANI on Saturday.
Further criticising the Rashtriya Janata Dal's (RJD) "jungle raj" period, the BJP state chief reminded people of Union Home Minister Amit Shah's appeal to the voters.
